Figure 4. Autocorrelation on plasma membrane associated GPI-GFP.
Autocorrelation function is collected from in a confocal volume chosen on the plasma membrane, where GFP is anchored via a GPI domain (A). Note how the baseline for the autocorrelation function is not flat (between 100ms and 1s) because of photobleaching of the plasma membrane-anchored GFP (B). Photobleaching is apparent as an exponential decay in the countrate (Inset C).
